Photography Tips for Great Store Listings

Writing Effective Product Descriptions

Be Clear and Specific

Include the exact product name, brand, size, and any relevant details. For example, "Coca-Cola 500ml Bottle" is better than just "Soda."

Highlight Key Features

Mention important characteristics like "Fresh Daily," "Local Made," or "Imported." These details help customers make informed decisions.

Use Simple Language

Write in clear, straightforward language. Avoid jargon and make sure descriptions are easy to understand for all customers.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Blurry Photos: Always ensure photos are clear and in focus
• Incorrect Prices: Verify all prices with the store owner before listing
• Missing Information: Complete all required fields for a professional listing
• Poor Lighting: Dark photos discourage customers from viewing the store
• Duplicate Listings: Check if a store already exists before creating a new listing

After Your Listing is Approved

Keep It Updated

Regularly add new products, update prices, and refresh photos to keep the listing current and valuable.

Monitor Performance

Track how your listing performs in the app. Popular stores with complete information typically generate more earnings.

Maximizing Your Earnings

Remember, your first listing is just the beginning. As you become more comfortable with the process, you'll be able to list stores more quickly while maintaining high quality standards.
